Probing the existence of a new charged vector boson decaying into heavy neutral leptons using ultra-peripheral heavy ion collisions at ATLAS
Y. M. Oviedo-Torres, Sebastian Tapia, J. Zamora-Saa
In this paper we explore the potential of Ultra-peripheral Collisions at the LHC to investigate new physics, focusing on the production of new charged vector bosons tha…
A borehole muon detector with SiPM-on-tile technology
Miguel Arratia, Jiajun Huang, Sean Preins +3
We developed a compact and rugged muon detector designed for deployment in boreholes. The detector uses a SiPM-on-tile approach in which silicon photomultipliers are directly coupl…
The CONDOR Observatory: A Gamma-Ray Observatory with a 100 GeV Threshold at 5300 Meters Above Sea Level
Miguel Arratia, Will Brooks, Jiajun Huang +8
We present the design of the Compact Network of Detectors with Orbital Range (CONDOR), a proposed high-altitude gamma-ray and cosmic-ray (CR) observatory set to become the highest…
Refining the Greisen Profile for Low-Energy Cosmic Gamma-Rays: Quantifying Deviations Across Altitudes and Zenith Angles
Constanza Valdivieso, Bárbara Gutierrez, Nicolás Viaux M +3
This study refines the Greisen formalism by comparing the classical Greisen profile and a modified Greisen profile, which incorporates an empirical correction to the shower age par…
Revisiting the Longitudinal Development of Electromagnetic Air Showers: Analytical Improvements to the Greisen Formalism with Zenith Angle Dependence
Sebastián Mendizabal, Nicolás Viaux M., Sebastián Tapia +3
We present a new analytical approach to the longitudinal development of electromagnetic air showers, offering improvements to the classical Greisen formalism. We introduce a novel…
